The Play Station by Asier

Ken Kutaragi is the inventor of the PlayStation. He was born in Japan on 2 August. Eventually, in fact, his love of electronics led him to enrolling  in the university of telecommunications, where he got an electronics degree. But the original PlayStation 4 is created by Dual Shock (Dual Shock is not a person, but a company).

The PlayStation can be black or white. It is rectangular and it has a remote control to play. There are lots of games you can buy at online or offline shops. My favorite game is "Overwatch". You can talk with your friends with special headphones.
